架构师提供的文本描述。我们的任务是设计一座单层建筑，一座无处不在的带有前厅的工厂/仓库大楼。对这个节目的剖析为我们提供了一个简单的主题。根据其计划的性质，这座建筑由两个独立的空间组成。该建筑的核心和灵魂是字母载体分类设施，这一功能很可能被定义为‘蓝领’，与“工厂”的功能相去甚远，而且看上去就像“工厂”一样。

Text description provided by the architects. We were given the task to design a single storey building, the ubiquitous factory / warehouse building with front office. A dissection of the program provided us with a simple theme. By nature of its program, the building consists of two independent spaces. The heart and soul of the building is the letter carriers sortation facility, a function likely defined as ‘blue collar’ and not far from functioning and appearing just like that of a “factory.

办公功能需要一座采取公司立场的建筑。工作人员的便利/便利功能需要有一个工作人员可以去换景的地方，一个休息的地方，一个在工作前后花时间的地方，一个午餐时间和咖啡休息时间的地方，一个更换和洗漱的地方，一个进行培训的地方，一个举行工会会谈和工作人员会议的地方。我们看到这些功能需要一座建筑，上面写着“我是娱乐/教育的”。

The office function requires a building that takes a corporate stance. The staff conveniences / amenities function requires a place where the staff can go to get a change of scenery, a break, a place where time is spent before and after work, lunch time and coffee breaks, a place to change and wash up, a place where training occurs, where union talks occur and staff meetings. We saw these functions requiring a building that says “I’m recreational/educational”.

建筑“工厂”部分的沉重、简朴的混凝土外墙，是所有CPC液晶显示器前辈的典型，与玻璃“企业”和“娱乐”建筑的轻盈外观和透明度形成了有趣的并列形式。把这座建筑的重心转向这两种形式之间的相互作用，使一个站点和程序特定的干预变成一个更类似于建筑的结构。

The heavy, austere pre-cast concrete façade of the “factory” portion of the building, typical to all CPC LCD predecessors, in stark contrast to the light appearance and transparency of the glazed “corporate” and “recreational” building component, creates an interesting juxtaposition of forms. Turning this building focus towards the interaction between the two forms morphed a site and program specific intervention into a structure more closely resembling architecture.

对可持续性的贡献

Contribution Towards Sustainability

要求这一新设施设计并申请LEED登记。该建筑的目标是LEED认证的指定，但可能有足够的点数，以保证LEED银。

• It was required that this new facility be designed to and be applied for LEED registration. The building is targeted for a LEED Certified designation but may have enough points to warrant LEED Silver.
